Introduction Hi it's me again, Kat, here with more exploits to brag about. And trust me, since we last shared a few confidences things have progressed by leaps and bounds, even by my standards. Pause while I wipe my brow and wonder at my brazenness. I cannot imagine what would happen if my mother was ever to stumble across the tales I've told. Or maybe I...
Chapter One The meeting was my first high-profile one at WYB and, for all my usual self-confidence, I do admit I was a bit nervous. Who wouldn't be in such a situation? Not two weeks into a six month contract with a new employer and there I was, thrown in at the deep end with some of the Bank's biggest players. Good job I'm not a sensitive soul, isn't it?...
Being a clandestine operative presented unusual opportunities. Sarah considered this as she regarded the woman in front of her. Just a few short months ago, the woman, Vivian, had been an unassuming graduate student; now she was the CEO of an major, if shady, international business empire. Despite the change in fortunes, Vivian remembered when she and Sara...
While it is possible to read this as a stand-alone story, you really should read 'Tomorrow is Promised Pts. 1 -- 3' first before reading this story. It explains the events leading up to the start of this story, which picks up right after 'Tomorrow is Promised Pt. 01.' Note: PM&PK needs to be told from both Points of View (PoV). In order to do that, I am...
Lisa stood on the cabin's small porch and shook the rain from her hair as she fished in her pocket for the key. Privacy be damned, she swore to herself. Next time, I'll choose a place that is reachable by car. Moments later, a similarly soaked Eve joined her. They'd been almost half a mile away when the storm caught them by surprise. Trudging through high wi...
Jill felt the wings shutter as the airliner's air brakes began to extend. Her body tensed as the air speed suddenly dropped. It was the part of flying she hated the most as she could not seem to overcome her fear that the plane would just drop from the sky when it slowed. Flying had never been her cup of tea anyhow. She always liked to feel in control and al...
There is, if you look, a bar like it in every town. Back home it was Ernie's; a small friendly bar where women meet other women. In LA, where I found myself working as close protection for an actress, Faye Millerton, it was Matt's. A good friend, Hannah, had recommended it and when Steph had to go home, it was where I went to fill the vacuum her departure le...
After spending the night 'playing' with Adian, I showered quickly and dressed to return to my office upstairs to work. Fortunately, most of my office 'attire' consisted of black skirts and suit coats with a variety of blouses or sweaters, so it wasn't obvious that I was wearing the same outfit as I had on yesterday. I arrived a little earlier than the usual...
Lisa cast a worried look at the clock on her desk, then went back to her reading. It didn't feel like she'd made much progress, but when she looked up, a whole hour had passed. The fact made her groan ... she'd never finish before Christine arrived. There was no getting around that, so she started plotting contingencies. Maybe if she went light on the drinki...
Tonight was the night! It was the Grand Opening of my fourth potentially successful nightclub. I didn't think I could do it. Matter of fact I really didn't want to do it but my advisors talked me in to it. Now I'm glad I took their advice. As I looked down from the private third floor I saw the mass of people packed in back to back. Dancing, sweating, a...
